Hello and welcome to my blog! Happy Hump day! I’m really tired and in pain. How are you doing? I’ve been feeling tired even after drinking coffee twice a day for a few days but I still pushed myself to be productive.

Storytime: When will this pandemic end?
Hello and welcome to my blog! So I tried this themed thing and I think it has pulled the plug on my creativity and originality and spontaneity. My impulsive nature is a bad thing when it comes to problem solving and conflict resolution, but it comes in handy when I’m writing. I wanted to getContinue reading “Storytime: When will this pandemic end?”
Storytime: I was very mindful today
Hello 👋 reader and welcome to my blog! How you doing today? I’m so excited to share my thoughts and I’m afraid that I might forget them because I got them while cleaning the bathrooms (I listen to podcasts while I clean the bathrooms because I don’t like cleaning the bathrooms but I like theContinue reading “Storytime: I was very mindful today”
Storytime: How can I motivate my son to learn?
I sit here at 10:30pm, tea cup in my hand (too late for coffee) while I contemplate my parenting techniques. I have the habit of trying to convince my son to do what I want by bribing him with things he wants, then when that doesn’t work, I start threatening to remove a privilege orContinue reading “Storytime: How can I motivate my son to learn?”
Storytime: I’m fine
Nobody: Absolutely nobody: Me: In case you’re wondering how my day is going, I just broke down into tears an hour ago during my son’s French class because the teacher asked him a question in French, he froze, and I kept telling him to answer, and the teacher could hear me, and he kept lookingContinue reading “Storytime: I’m fine”
Storytime: switching roles does wonders
I switched roles with my son today…twice! So here’s what happened: My son was eating dinner and he started fooling around, trying to get my attention. I’ve begun to notice these things as they are. A need to be met. So I decided to play with him a bit. I told him “I’ll be theContinue reading “Storytime: switching roles does wonders”
Storytime: Look how far you’ve come
I hold my son in my arms, and I feel the love flooding through me. This peace washes over me and I feel so much gratitude. If you were with me through my difficult pregnancy, sudden delivery and 3 weeks of agony during which my 1.5 kg son was in the NICU, you’d understand (heContinue reading “Storytime: Look how far you’ve come”
Storytime: It’s human nature
It’s human nature to get hung up on the things you don’t have or can’t do I complain about the people in my life a lot, but honestly, I can’t live without them. Don’t get me wrong. I don’t make things up. It’s just, the good things in my life, the happy moments, I eitherContinue reading “Storytime: It’s human nature”
Storytime: In this moment
Hello 👋 reader and welcome to my blog! I just wanted to share a good moment with you because I usually share the bad (I’m more creative that way). It’s been a long day and I did my fair share of yelling and my son drove me crazy during online class, but in this momentContinue reading “Storytime: In this moment”
Storytime: Day 3 of total lockdown
It’s day 3 of the total lockdown and I’m telling you it’s hard. Not because I’m not getting much of my goals done. Not because I can’t leave the house. Not because I’m moody and keep trying to tell myself “I am calm and in control of my emotions”. But because I have to walkContinue reading “Storytime: Day 3 of total lockdown”
